چکیده
Recent history of the health care system Under dictatorship there was a means-tested and centralized health care system, rooted in a social security scheme. The Constitution established the right of all Spaniards to health protection and set out a new regionally based organizational framework. The creation of the National Health Institute in 1978 and the Ministry of Health in 1981 gave rise to a separate organization for health care within the social security system. Reform trends Decentralization of the health care system is based on the model of devolution so that responsibility is being transferred from central administration to the 17 regional governments. From 1986, the transition to a National Health System involved a reform of financing, which has transformed the former insurance-oriented system into a system financed by taxes with an almost universal coverage for all citizens.
